SketchTool

An OS X command-line app for exporting Pages and Slices out of .sketch documents.

Getting & Installing SketchTool

SketchTool comes bundled with Sketch (and Sketch Beta). You can find it in Sketch.app/Contents/Resources/sketchtool/.

To install SketchTool, just download the latest Sketch and run the Sketch.app/Contents/Resources/sketchtool/install.sh file in your Terminal. This will install the tool in /usr/local/bin, and some required resource files in /usr/local/share/sketchtool.

You can put the tools anywhere else that you want, but you currently need to follow the same folder structure. Details of which can be found in SketchTool’s readme.

Note: SketchTool requires OSX 10.11 or higher.

Important to Know

SketchTool is free to use, but it comes with absolutely no warranty. That being said, if you find any bugs or have any feature request, please send us an email and we'll do our best to improve it.

SketchTool can only export a document if all the fonts that it uses have been installed on the system.

Note that future versions of Sketch will make changes to the file format, so make sure you’re always running the latest version of the tool.
